2012 (PG-13)
If only someone had listened to the Mayans, maybe humans wouldn’t be running for their lives when the apocalypse hits in 2012. Instead, this epic disaster film features a family in a fight for their lives as the world burns, crumbles and explodes toward its end. (John Cusack [Jackson Curtis], Amanda Peet [Kate Curtis])
DVD Review : The September Issue
Gentlemen Broncos (PG-13)
Benjamin is an eccentric teen who’s isolated by his mother’s home-schooling and stuck with a terrible wardrobe to boot. When one of his sci-fi stories is ripped off by a legendary novelist, Ben embarks on a quirky adventure that’s interwoven with the space-age story in his mind, told through the oddball eyes of Napoleon Dynamite director Jared Hess. (Michael Angarano [Benjamin], Jermaine Clement [Chevalier])

Spike Jonze adapts Maurice Sendak’s classic children’s story, in which a little boy escapes to his own imaginary world in the forest. Far away from all his hurt and sadness, he becomes king of a wild land filled with massive beasts who take him in as one of their own. (Max Records [Max], Catherine Keener [Mom])
WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Where The Wild Things Are Is Where The Audience Is Going
Posted on Oct 18, 2009 @ 03:15PM - 1 comment
As expected, Where the Wild Things Are is the run-away winner at the box office this weekend. It brought in an estimated $32.5 million. Law Abiding Citizen with Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler grossed a respectable $21.2 million for second place. But the real winner for this weekend and perhaps the whole of 2009 is the third place flick, Paranormal Activity. Shot in 2006 for a mere $15,000 with a hand-held camera, it increased its tally by $20.1 million as word of the thriller spreads and prints get into more theaters. Fourth place went to Vince Vaughn's Couples Retreat which earned $17.9 million. The Stepfather had fifth place with $12.3 million.
The rest of the top 10: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs - $8.1 million; Zombieland - $7.8 million; Toy Story/Toy Story 2 (3D) - $3 million; Surrogates - $1.9 million; The Invention of Lying - $1.9 million.
